December is a weird time of the year and some phrases are constantly repeated. It’s a recurring theme over the years and Kenyans are consistent. Here are some of our favorite December quotes:

  1. “I am cutting off all the negative people in my life”. This is when people assume that others are the cause of their problems. December signals a time of hope and a fresh start where through your social media page, you will declare that you will pursue your billionaire dreams to the world. The thing is, maybe you are that negative friend who is doing others a favor by getting out of their lives?
  2. "New year, new me." We have all heard this one. February ikifika….msame old you
  3. "I don’t make resolutions on December only." How to attempt to take the moral high ground because you are better than other people
  4. "I am going to the gym." For one week alafu utatusumbua ukisema eti “Oooh… healthy living, work hard ….play hard. Success……” Nyamasa.
  5. "I am never drinking again." Famous last words. Hii ni Drink-cember and you will probably be out of the house after getting that “Uko wapi?” text
  6. "I only eat unhealthy during December holiday." Hii uwongo ya Vegeterian wacha. Who hates Kienyeji chicken? Nyamasa
  7. "Baecation." Take your bae for holiday in silence. Wacha kutusumbua. Now you are destabilizing our relationships because we don’t look as romantic as you
